Its a very interesting unique game good job. The only thing I say could be improved is how you introduce the mechanics to the player it was a bit difficult to understand what I was doing or needed to do. Also I'm curious since I also made a multiplayer game are you using Godot's built-in high-level multiplayer api or did you use websockets or something like nakama?

Thanks a lot! It's true; it was kinda hard to understand the mechanics! We used the high-level multiplayer api. It was really nice and easy to use, but it came with a fundamental limitation; You can't use it with html exports! If you need to use html5 exports, it's better to use websockets. I think there's a way to do it but i didn't have time to search for it!
Nice. I was quite curious since I'm doing a lot of testing with Godot's high-level multiplayer api and I was impressed by how you managed to create a room system. Was create room system difficult? I haven't actually messed around trying to make my own implementation for such a system but it would be interesting to incorporating it into some of my future projects.
Thanks for your reply! I'm a newbie with the api so i don't think i used the best practices but i basically have two arrays, one of them keeps tracks of all of the players online and the other one its a array the diferrent rooms. When a player creates a room, his id its added to the rooms array and when a player joins to that room his id its added to the room object inside that array and after that the system checks to only room empty rooms! I can share you the code on github if you want. Beware, its mostly spaghetti!
lol that's how my code is as well. I was thinking it worked something along those lines where you would have an empty array that you would append to when a room is created which you could sync through the server with an rset for that variable the only thing im not to sure about is the instancing the correct players in the correct room.
